The next day they decided to hit Hollywood Studios, because Meredith wanted to ride the Tower of Terror as many times as she could, and no one had any objections to that. They paraded through the streets, chatty and excited as they entered the queue for the ride, excited just to be in Disney at all. They'd come up with the idea over spring break and had been looking forward to this trip since then. When Meredith had admitted she'd never been, they all got even more excited about breaking Meredith's Disney virginity.

So far she was loving the parks and loving Florida. It rained at least once a day but it didn't matter, neither did the crazy heat. She and Addison had matching tiara's and wore them around the parks every day, and had persuaded the guys to get Mickey ears and wear them with them. Every chance they found, they took photos; they were having the time of their lives.

They ended up riding Tower of Terror four times. Every time they got off, Meredith or Addison insisted they get back in line, until Mark said his stomach had dropped out too many times. They decided to do Star Tours next, since the boys were obsessed with Star Wars and had made the girls obsessed as well over winter break, making them see the new film four times.

After Star Tours came Toy Story's Midway Mania, where it was Meredith and Derek against Addison and Mark. Meredith had no idea what she was doing so she aimed her blaster gun at anything and everything, and somehow they beat Addison and Mark. Giving Derek a high five, she climbed on his back, her Ray-Bans sliding down her sweaty face as Addison took a photo of the couple. Meredith barely weighed anything so Derek easily carried her to their next destination, Rockin' Roller Coaster.

Derek and Meredith shared a pair of seats, with Addie and Mark in front of them. The ride went from 0 to 60mph in literally one second, and Meredith couldn't even feel them going upside down. The coaster was finished in under 60 seconds and Meredith was filled with such a thrill that she wanted to go again, but everyone else was hungry and it was time for their lunch reservation anyway.

After lunch it was starting to rain, and they were tired and sweaty anyway so they caught the bus back to their hotel. Everyone showered and laid down for a nap, Meredith curled up with Derek. The afternoon was spent napping; they had dinner reservations at one of the French restaurants in Epcot but napping the afternoon heat away was great.

Waking up was hard, but they had reservations at 7. Derek was the first one awake and he woke Meredith up with a gentle kiss. She stretched lightly, her eyes fluttering open as she smiled at Derek.

"Hey sunshine," she smiled, rolling over to face him. Waking up next to him was amazing and she couldn't wait until it was a forever thing.

"Mmm hey princess," he smiled, pulled her closer for another kiss.

"Mmmm I have to get dressed," she pouted, knowing exactly what dress she wanted to wear. He pouted as well as she slipped from under the covers, pulling out a knee length teal silk halter dress. She slipped into it and zipped it up the back, doing her usual crown braid. Derek watched her get ready, watching her apply makeup, something Addison helped her get better at over the school year, as he got himself into a pair of khaki shorts and a navy polo shirt that he'd had forever. Meredith turned around, her skirt flaring and she smiled, nude lip gloss on her lips.

"How do I look?" she smiled, reaching for a pair of brown espadrilles, wrapping the ribbons around her ankles and standing up. She was markedly taller, much more on her level and he wrapped his arm around her waist, locking her in a kiss.

"You are the most beautiful woman on the planet," he smiled, and she grinned, giving another twirl.

"And you are great at flattery, but I love you," she laughed, grabbing a brown cross-body bag and tossing in her wallet, phone, and ID – fake and real – before slinging it over her shoulder. To Derek she looked like a dream, a princess from a long time ago as she went into the main room, banging on Mark and Addison's door.

"You two better be ready and not having sex in there!" she yelled, just as Mark opened the door with a smirk.

"Keep your panties on, Grey, we're coming," he said, as Addison came out behind him in a short dress, the bodice beaded, her red hair down her back. The four of them took a stupid selfie using Meredith's phone, before leaving for dinner. Luckily it was only a ten minute walk and they were at the restaurant in no time at all. Dinner was fun, especially since no one carded them once, much like the rest of the week. The food was delicious and Meredith didn't ever want to leave.

Their week in Disney came to an end but they still had a week on the cruise. A shuttle picked them up from the hotel and brought them to the port, and Meredith stared up at the massive ship. Their bags were whisked away, to be delivered to their room later, and they boarded the ship by a massive gangplank. Inside, the ship was elegant and opulent, and they had photos of them taken as they milled about the main room that held staircases and elevators.

After awhile Meredith's phone went off, notifying them that their rooms were ready. She went up to the front desk and got the keys to both her and Derek's room, and Addie and Marks room. They were on one of the higher decks and they found their way there. Once Meredith threw open the door, she gasped. The room was absolutely massive and gorgeous. There was the bedroom and bathroom, along with a table and chairs and the sitting area with a pullout couch and television unit. She walked through the place with a smile. Addie and Mark were just across the all in a room just like theirs.

"This is perfect," she smiled, wrapping her arms around Dereks neck, standing on her tip-toes to kiss him. He grinned back, hugging her tightly.

"Definitely perfect," he smiled. There was a knock at the door and it was a man with their bags; Derek quickly tipped him and pulled the bags into the room. Meredith had wandered out onto the deck, watching the ocean. Dressed in a pale pink dress that was accented by her tan skin. As her hair blew in the wind, his breath caught in his throat. He'd never seen a sight so beautiful as his barefoot girlfriend on the deck of the ship. After a moment she came back inside, her hair windswept with a smile on her face.

"So the view is great," she smirked, as Derek caught her in his arms. He kissed her deeply and she smiled; so far the cruise was turning out to be just as great as Disney World had been, and they still technically has seven more days of Disney.

"What was that for?" she grinned, as she looked up at him, their arms still around each other.

"Just because I love you," he smiled, holding her close.

A bit short but there's more fun to be had in upcoming chapters!
